First of all, i would like to thank all my friends, family and my fans for their support they have given me throughout the whole competition. As a lot of people know now, i had participated in a MASSIVE dance competition "So you think you can dance" on FOX. I had made it through to being in the top 12 dancers but unfortunately got cut after that. A lot of fans have been telling me how sad that i did not make it to the top 10 and that i had deserved to stay. I truly appreciate those views but i believe that whatever is meant to happen happens, and no matter what we will compare what we accomplished to something more that we couldve had. I will not lie, i am very sad that i could not go further in the competition to learn more things every day and spend times with my friends but the reality is that i will have to face it. this emotion that i am feeling is incredibly strong and i am looking forward for it will be a great ingredient for making a new dance/art. and for the people who are refusing to watch the show anymore/ go to the tour, please dont do so it will be sad to think that i had a negative effect on anybody. i am sorry that i have not been able to get back to a lot of my fans but i will work on it as much as i can when i can find some time.

As for future plans, i would like to create as much as i can so please let me know if there are any opportunity/jobs that i may be able to share my soul with.

 

 

thank you again for everything

 

 

*lastly, i would like to put down my thoughts that i was never able to share on the show*

 

Many things happen in life,

for it may be a good thing or a bad thing, your emotions are moved from one side to another.

when you are angry, frustrated, jealous, the mind stresses your body out

when you are happy, excited, inspired, you see the world brighter.

i think of emotions as paints on a pallette.

it is not bad to feel anger or frustration.

it all depends on HOW you use it.

do not go and hurt people, that will never lead you to a good road.

getting frustrated and braking things wont help either.

USE that emotion to create something.

if you want to let it out with a strong impact jump up and land on your shoulder instead of punching someone.

when you are sad, USE that emotion as an ingredient.

it is not everyday that you may be able to feel that way.

 

 

think of how much hatred and sadness the war creates.

if you take all the emotions people feel and project it as a form of art,

 

for sure we will be able to create an amazing masterpiece.

 

 

 

 

think.

Hok, thank you for that. I'm so looking forward to whatever comes next for you! Keep your chin up, and keep dancing like no one's watching!

WOW! You really make me appreciate LiFe when I read your blogs. Very Uplifting!!
You are my absolute favorite from the show (all 3 years) and yes I was upset that you got cut but that's the way the show goes, right? I guess. I plan on being a fan of yours forever and I hope I can always say hello thru myspace.
I also wanted to ask you a question. I know you are extremely busy so I may not get a response, but I'll try. I am from Brooklyn, New York and would like to know how I can find out about any shows ( like the ones you & Quest perform in) in my area. I would love to be at a show like that. I have watched so many videos of you, Ryan, & Steve and the rest of the Quest Crew and I am just hooked!!
Good Luck to You in whatever you do!! I will be talking about you for the rest of my life HAHA. i told you im hooked!!

wow...can't believe nobody commented on this yet. i just wanted to let you know that my aunt and i have been rooting for you on the show since the beginning and we are so sad that you aren't going to get to go on the tour. to be honest, you were probably the person we wanted to see most on the tour and though we may still end up going, our hearts won't be in it as much as they would have been. that's not to say that we won't continue to watch the show because there are so many great dancers left to discover on the show but you will always be my favorite dancer from season 3. always.

good luck in everything you do and i know we'll get to see you in the future, doing what you love to do: creating art.

Hey Hok,

I think you are positive and it is refeshing.
Couple things, I am a fan of yours and I am also a positive person however I am a business person and I think by me not watching the show and others it will make an impact and that is on their ratings, which bottom line that is how they make money! Its just that you are diverse and you did great in dances that were not your style. And there were comments made that I feel was judged in a political matter and its already set.

When I own my own company I will hire you to dance for sure!

I hope wish the other dancers luck, but the show should stop saying one thing one week and another the next week. They start off by saying its about talent, then its about how you grow, then its about your personality not so much the dance. See this is the third season that I watched consistently and this year absolutely fell in love with your dancing and I am getting tired off hearing different reasons and excuses and I think thats because its fixed... but as far as the other dancers I hope they all become successful and continue to grow as people.

And, lastly I loved what you wrote about using emotions and putting them to use in a positive way. I am no where near as artistic/creative as you however... I am using my emotions to push you as an individual and posting your link (something positive)... Your art is inspiring and this is the beginning!

hey hok, as I have said to you in the past, you are an amazing dancer. Even though your journey on SYTYCD has ended, I am sure you will get more opportunities to show your skills to the world. You never know what could happen with the exposure that you had on the show. Even though we will all miss you dancing on SYTYCD, I am sure that people wont stop watching. It's just sad to see such a talented dancer leave at that point. I still support you in your dance and art career. I am sure you will do well. You just need that door to open for you. Good luck!

I agree things happen for a reason and I for one have faith that you will go far in life and achieve your greatest dreams.

Hopefully we will meet again but if not I am grateful that I was blessed with the opportunity of meeting u. I will continue to support you work and the show and God willing I will go to the tour as well.

Keep being you 'cause you are a star!

Hok,

You seem like such a beautiful soul! I wish there were more people in this world that shared your views on emotions and art....I do! :) As far as opportunities and sharing your soul....I would love to do the same! I may have mentioned this in a comment before, but....if you are ever in the Portland, OR area and are in need of some creative release, let me know...I would LOVE to work on an art piece with you!

Dearest Hok,

I said it from the first audition I saw of you that you were truly one of a kind. You have the personality of a sage -- someone with wisdom and words that surpass most others who are only 23 years old.

You encourage and inspire many of us spread happiness and to bring joy to others in the world. And though you may think of yourself as just the same old Hok before SYTYCD, I'm proud of how you're utilizing this "famous" status to pass along messages like these, which makes me and I'm sure all of your fans comforted because we know that no amount of fortune or fame can change the truly kind and inspirational person you are inside.

You tell us fans to continue watching the show and to go on tour even when our favorite (you!) has left the competition. It is a message like that that truly shows how selfless you are -- where you put other's best interests (the show) before yours.

I am so proud of all that you have accomplished during these past three years, Hok. You may aspire to be an artist, but I can already tell you that your personality is a true work of fine art. :)

Best wishes!
- Queena

I was hoping for a new blog ! maybe Steve told you to do a new one? iunno haha!
Im happy you're going on Tour, I might travel to the US to see you perform..I live in Montreal and I dont think the tour will be coming here..and even if they do, I don't know if you have your Work thing for Canada....so I won't see your perform anyway, and the only reason I'd buy a ticket for the tour is to watch you dance :) . You really deserved to stay man, i really hope you make your own tour with QUEST some days, itll be really cool. I heard you were on the taping of sytycd MONDAY, hope to see you on TV tonight! you made history man, you were America's favorite dancer and also my favorite dancer! :) ...Canada's favorite dancer too I guess! hehe..all the cheer you got last Thursday say it all.
good luck man, looking forward for your next project, btw, i love your new background :)

hok that was such a beautiful post. You may have been cut but don't forget of all of the lives you have touched, including my own. Your hard work and dedication has been an inspiration to me. And while I may not know what I want to do in life yet, what you have accomplished makes me believe that I can do anything that I put my mind to. So thank you for that. And as for jobs, I don't think you'll have ANY problems getting a job!

Hey Hok,

You know, the only reason I started watching SYTYCD was because my friend told me you were in it... She thought I'd like you, and I did! So I started watching SYTYCD religiously. I was absolutely stunned when he said that you were done... I honestly thought that your solo was the -best- one! Just because there were two other b-boys in the top ten didn't mean they had to cut you... I was uber bummed. I'm going to miss you so much on the show, but I'll be rooting for you in whatever you do next!

You are an amazing human being. You are thoughtful and kind and artistic, passionate, and so much more that i could go on forever. You are a one of a kind and don't let anyone stop you from being you. When you start getting jobs you need to post them because I will come down to Cali from Seattle to see you perform. I think your time was cut short on the show, and it hurts my heart to see you go so soon. But I look forward to see what this brings you. Much luck to you Hok. And thank you for everything you bring to the world.

Damn I can't believe you were eliminated. In all honesty I thought you and Cedric were the best dancers I have ever seen. Both of you are gone from the show and I believe that's for the best, cuz the ones that get booted are always the ones with the most success afterwards. So I wish you the best of luck and I look forward to seeing more of your awesome dancing in the near future!!
